Material: Textend 702 Architectural Mesh
Project Name: Sainsbury's Gloucester
Textend 702 fire-retardent architectural PVC-coated polyester installed as a tensile membrane entrance canopy at Sainsbury's in Gloucester.
Thirteen 7m x 12m hyperbolic panels were used to form a visual impact storefront canopy. The panels rely on their double curvature patterning to remain in tension under snow and wind load. The translucent properties of the material allows shaded light by day and a discreet glow by night.
